    Yes. On the Teams desktop app, an update can be forced manually.

    On Windows or Mac desktop:

    1. Open Microsoft Teams and sign in.
    2. Select the profile picture (avatar) in the upper-right corner.
    3. Select Check for updates.
      • Teams will check, download, and stage any available updates.
    4. When prompted, select Update and restart Teams (or Restart next to the ellipsis ...) so the new version is applied.

    Teams also auto-updates when the app is idle, so leaving it running and signed in helps ensure it stays current. If Teams was installed in a non-default location (for example, under Program Files using a script), automatic updates may not work; reinstalling Teams in the default user\AppData location is recommended so future updates apply automatically.
